Chess Practical

To create a Chessboard with Chess pieces we first need to know their unicode or HTML equivalent codes.
There are around 12 Symbols that are needed to create a Chessboard in HTML.
These symbols are available in Unicode range U+2654 to U+265F.
Note : To display these Symbols you need to have the font that supports this Unicode Range.
